I have a 10 mile commute with lots of stoplights and stop signs, into Downtown San Jose. I have SPD clipless pedals on each of my bikes...my commuter has 1/2 clipless pedals (platform on one side), which can be a little annoying at times, if the pedal flips the wrong way, but the benefits outweigh the shortcomings, at least for me.
Now, if only I could attach cleats to the bottom of my hunting boots for riding in the cold & rain...
